Then bought the 135 and the 85- and sold the 100, regrettably. I agree with Ronald. Get the 100mm and walk a little. The photos from the 85 always seem boring; why I don't know. The 135mm is a great lens, but put a lense hood on it and it's like pointing a bazooka at someone. I think the 100mm 2 is underated. Just to add to the confusion... I opted for both the 85/1.8 and 135/2, and I decided the 100 wasn't needed if I had both of those. The 135/2 is one of the best Canon lenses ever. I don't regret my decision at all. Still want to flip the 85 and 135 for a 100... multidisciplinary visual guy, professor of visual art, irresponsible and salty.

You show one photo and you crop it to what looks like at least 200% and you expect amazing detail?? Here is an image I took with the 50D and 100mm F2.8L cropped to 100%.  For a 100% crop this is an amazing amount of detail IMO. Especially for my first attempt at a BIF. Please visit my Flickr
